Saw a picture of a priest/preacher blessing an American football team before a game, got me wonderin' what religion the other team was! Reminded of this song I wrote last year.
[verse 1]
The Sisters Cohen had never committed a sin
Since puberty they had given themselves to him
It's not that they were Christians or anything at all
They just liked to dress up and pretend to answer the call
[verse 2]
They got in a lot of places without payin' a dime
No one stopped them so they weren't like doing a crime
Disco's and sports games ushered them in
Told the stewards outside they ran the sin bin
[chorus]
Got good spots at the concerts
Saw Springsteen and Swift for free
Whenever the security challenged them
They blessed them and got down on one knee
[verse 3]
Had front seats on the Letterman show
Met Set T who kindly shared his blow
Oprah was good but smaller than they thought
Backstage at the Oscars in the rooms were divas fought
[chorus]
Got good spots at the concerts
Saw Springsteen and Swift for free
Whenever the security challenged them
They blessed them and got down on one knee
[verse 4]
The Cohen Sisters were at the SuperBowl
Both teams waited for the sisters to bless their soul
The girls made the sign of the cross, the men knelt to pray
A 100 million Christians saw them do it the wrong way
[verse 5]
Tv stations lines were blocked with thousands of complaints
The Vatican threatened sanctions, no access to the saints
The Cohens were defrocked, can't call them Sisters any more
The siblings bought two Rabbi beards just to settle the score
[chorus]
Got good spots at the concerts
Saw Springsteen and Swift for free
Whenever the security challenged them
They blessed them and got down on one knee
[outro]
Whenever the security challenged them
They blessed them and got down on one knee
